Medical services in Western Europe

Most Western European countries have a public health system whereby the state assumes responsibility for the health of its citizens. In some countries, this system is prone to long lines for visits to a doctor, and long waiting periods for operations, hospitalization and non-urgent medical treatment. Israelis, who live in these countries or spend long periods of time in a Western European country, have the possibility of using these health services but they are subject to the same conditions of service. As a result Israelis, who live in these countries, opt for private medical insurance which allows them to undergo tests, receive treatment, purchase medication, be admitted to hospital, and undergo operations without compromising the quality of the treatment.
